Anne-Sophie is the definition of a teen "wunderkind". She wrote her first full-length feature film screenplay and directed her first short film at age 15. Multi-talented, she is at ease in all aspects of filmmaking: writing, directing, acting and producing her own projects. Born in Santa Monica, California but raised in Canada, she is pursuing her passion at an early age, intent on making movies that matter, while also getting involved in new media content production for the Web and cell phones.
MARKED, her first short film, was shot on the Universal Studios Hollywood backlot in the famous "Little Europe" set while attending the NYFA. She would love to be a role model for other teens to pursue their dreams and have a positive impact on the world. In March 2007, she was nominated to become a life member of the prestigious Academy of Media, Recording, Interactive, Television & Stage Arts in the UK (equivalent to Academy Awards membership).
She just completed directing her second short film,
KARA’S FILE, co-starring with teen sensation John Patrick Amedori (The Butterfly Effect) and shot by renowned Italian cinematographer Massimiliano Trevis. She also just wrapped production on a documentary about cell phone use among teens in California for the YoungCuts film festival in Canada and a pilot for a convergence TV show for the US and Chinese markets.
At age 16, she is in production of her first feature film
FADED MEMORIES,
set for a 2008 international release and is president of
Anne-Sophie Films, LLC, the company that develops and produces all her projects. With an all pro team and an amazing cast, this groundbreaking movie is sure to get plenty of press coverage and visibility as we approach the release date. Two YouTube stars are also part of the supporting cast, while also shooting a behind-the-scene documentary on Anne-Sophie as a director, writer and co-star in this movie.
